Where the hell do you think demand comes from for a football player? How could that not be tied to number of touches and impact on the game?

Teams need up using it in a specific way last year because it was announced so late. Can’t imagine it didn’t become apart of the normal cap going forward.

The SMS didn't go up last year according to Walters. No announcement for this coming year yet either. The CFLPA ultimately decides how this new money is spent, whether it is salary or not is unknown. Last year the extra 462k went directly to improved benefits etc. None to increased salary to players No there really is not. Supply and demand dictate salary not number of touches. Business 101

Have we adjusted the numbers based on the cap going up last year and this year ? BO not getting that much of raise really based on cap percentage.

Or perhaps related to personal conduct issues.

This would be the best news of the offseason. The D line could be so much better with him gone.

Cameron Dukes sounds like he's making up a Frank Dux like story. I don't believe it.

Tyson might touch the ball 5 - 8 times per game.... Brady is touching the ball 20-30 times.... much more value in a RB then a WR.

Would be nice but improbable given some of the contract numbers we have already. Unless we shed some salary elsewhere of course. BO was a gross overpay, ZC was already one, and if Kramdi gets what he got last year we are going to be in tough to not only sign talent but to retain what we already have. Unless, the SMS is up of course.

Also, a couple of really good upside free agent gets.

Lol Kramdi is a player that you and most of the forum disagree on I think. I would rather see him at S though.

thus far Walters has signed 3 cdns all in their prime and given Wilson an extension again in his prime. And all 2-3 yr deals. Kudos for great job.

Santa drop that pen immediately and slowly walk away with your hands where I can see them.

They are working on it - both the league & CFLPA says they are open to discussions but we'll see what happens. CFL, Players' Association open to discussing public salary disclosure - 3DownNation

Mike's post above hit the nail on the head. Drop the deadweight Cdn's making that much and I have no issue paying top $ for Brady.

Would rather have seen one of Nichols or Holm re-upped first....and at best only 2 of the 3....so do we sign all 3 and screw our SMS where we dont need to?....as 3 guys in and over 140k in the defensive backfield is a huge over spend....and does this mean Kramdi is defacto starter according to Osh as per history even if he is not needed ratio wise or the best player?...as we currently have 3 guys on roster already who could do the job better and cheaper....paying premium for a guy who isnt top in his class is not good sms management....and playing him cause of what he is making even tho not best option...is poor rostering...who cares how smart he apparently is....doesn't make you good necessarily

KOLO pulled in 150k last yr

I'd love to see the CFL publish salary information like every other sports league.

Yea...it's about time they start giving us this information. Hard to play armchair GM without it ...lol. I am just looking at the amount of 6 game stints we had with high price guys and Walters did bupkus to spend any of it during the season.

I'm very curious as to how much we stayed under the cap. It would make a lot of sense that we have been using a lot of this year's cap on these extensions. I'd love to know how much each team spends on starting, and candians as a whole in the sms.

As it should be, maybe even to a far greater extent. We spent well below the SMS last year by my math so spending it now is the least he could do. Heard via the grape vine that Thomas is likely to retire. Take it with a grain of salt, but a friend of mine connected to the Bomber's training staff seems pretty convinced he's hanging them up. Hope for the best on that one.

Now, if someone would teach him that his arms can be useful for tackling.......

Glad to see that the NATs are being secured.
